Big thanks to @JoPlatt.bsky.social for sharing her challenging journey with #LongCovid. I agree - current @DWPgovuk approaches to assessment fail #pwLC, #pwME. Proposed changes will only worsen things, with devastating consequences. @longcovidsupport.bsky.social I’m with you - time to rethink!

📣 Current PIP criteria already fail people with energy-limiting conditions. Proposed changes will deepen this injustice, with devastating consequences. @joplatt.bsky.social backs our call for a system that supports people with #LongCovid, in @bigissue.com.

The UK’s millions of unpaid carers are the backbone of our society, propping up our fragile health & social care systems and providing essential care to friends and family. This #CarersWeek, government must start to acknowledge the significant inequalities that carers face and put support in place.

I'm appalled to hear the latest update from the Madleen. The people of Gaza are enduring unimaginable suffering and they have the right to receive aid. I've written to the Foreign Secretary urging him to uphold international law and ensure that the illegal blockade is lifted.

Thank you to my constituent Anthony for raising the issue that medical data is often not accessible across the NHS because of incompatible systems. Delighted that in response to my question, the Leader of the House confirmed that the government is absolutely committed to fixing this. 👍🏾

So Israhell is medically abusing the crew of the Madleen too? Why would they say they are doing that? They've already told us they are going to be interrogated and psychologically tortured.

The officer on the far left literally takes careful aim at a static TV news reporter in LA and shoots her. He must have been really scared about the TV coverage. Awful times. Anything to make more drama than there is. youtu.be/vglaT7awScY

At 1.0 am the IDF surrounded the Madleen with boats, drones and sprayed them with chemicals. The 12 people aboard were instructed to throw phones into the water and are now off the Madleen and with the IDF. They are all apparently safe. An illegal act carried out by Israel in international waters.

Can many people name the chairman of Labour, Tories, Lib Dems or Greens? How often does an unelected bureaucrat get the 8:10 interview on Radio 4? Completely disproportionate media coverage of Zia Yusuf saga

🚨 ACTION ALERT: The UK MUST protect ‘Madleen’ 🚨 The ‘Madleen’ is a UK-flagged civilian ship sailing to Gaza with life-saving aid as part of the #FreedomFlotilla. The UK has a legal duty to protect its vessel and the civilians aboard from Israeli interference. ..2/

The communications blackout has officially begun, the #Madleen will probably have all channels blocked very soon. So keep sharing, keep caring xx #FreedomFlotilla

Trigger Warning: I put together a thread that documents harmful portrayals of #MECFS on TV. I don’t enjoy sharing these, but it’s important to record how the condition has been misunderstood, trivialised and stigmatised. twitter-thread.com/t/1931298769...

In amongst all the excitement I fear many have missed this outstanding bit of trolling by Friedrich Merz. The Chancellor gifted Trump a gilded framed copy of his grandfather’s German birth certificate... reminding Americans that Trump is both the child and grandchild of migrants.

Trump has tapped Palantir, which has been used by the Israeli government in its war on Gaza, to compile information on people in the United States. “If you're not freaking out yet, you should be,” says @carolecadwalla.bsky.social.

This is so true and crazy-making that it needs to be said. Musk's people are still deep inside our government, dismantling vital services and stealing data.

If Republicans in the U.S. Senate pass the “One Big Beautiful Bill Act,” Oregonians currently enrolled in Medicaid are more likely than people in nearly any other state to lose coverage and end up uninsured, according to analyses from several national think tanks.
